A Few Cards for OWH

Getting in a few cards before the start of school on Monday.  It'll be my last semester in Tier 1, which means I need to get a job at a small animal clinic before I can start the next semester...which means I'll have 3 jobs! Yikes!  We'll see how that goes.

So I was flipping through my notebook of OWH sketches (PDF) that I printed off and decided to do sketch #193. And notice the lack of feathers...it was hard to not include one.

 I've been working hard to use up a Darling Dear by My Minds Eye 6X6 paper pack, so I came up with these two cards.

The heat embossed sentiment is from Paper Smooches Circle of Honor and the enamel dots are from MME "Hello".

The sentiment is from My Favorite Things Peaceful Wildflowers and the enamel dots are from MME "Smile".

OWH Sketch #206

Sunday=Monday for me, but it also means an OWH sketch.  Sketch #206 has lots of layers, something which I'm just not well rounded in.

So here's my take on this sketch.

Paper: My Mind's Eye

Stamps: Hero Arts Missing You

Happy New Year!

There is so much to look forward to this year!  In March I'll be attending the National Wildlife Rehabilitators Symposium in Tennessee.  MIL has just about booked our beach vacation in August.  But most of all, I'm going to South Africa!  I am soooooooo very excited! I applied for a grant offered by the Zoo to all keepers to do conservation work.  I'll be working with Old World Vultures with Vulture Conservation Programme (check them out here: VulPro).  Although I've been to Africa twice before, this will be my first time alone, and not strictly as a tourist.

Since it's January, ODBD posted its challenge on OWH and this months challenge is Stripes.  I took a bit of liberty w/ the stripes by creating them with 3 strips of scrap paper.  My inspiration came from Jana Millen's card.

 Here's my card:

Dies: Simon Says Stamps Pointed Feathers

Paper: My Minds Eye Darling Dear

Ink: Distress Ink Iced Spruce, Versacolor Scarlet

Embelishments: MME Smile Enamel Dots, Sekura Glaze Pen

ODBD Challenge for December

Every month, Our Daily Bread Designs posts a challenge on OWH and will donate 2 boxes of shipping for 50 cards posted.  This, month, the challenge is to create a masculine card and here's the card I created.

I used WPlus9's Fanciful Feathers stamps and dies and My Favorite Things Peekaboo Dots die.

One Sheet Wonder set

Here are a group of cards I sent off in my first batch of cards to OWH.

I used Seongsook's tutorial to create them.
